I don't think racism will ever die because ignorance and stupidity will never die with it.
Being an asian person, my whole life I had to deal with it once. And that was in middle school because someone yelled out to me "Go back to Hong Kong!". I turned around and merely laughed at him because I wasn't even from Hong Kong to begin with. Sometimes, being the age that I am.. I run into a lot of idiots that think they can be funny and call me "Chink" or say "Ching chong". I embrace it because I know I am different and I know I stand out.

Jhordan, I'm sorry about your encounter with such you-know-whats. And I'm glad to hear that Jane is okay and did not get hit with a rock. But, I think at your age you begin to learn these little glitches in society but you also have to understand them. I think you should just ignore people like that and tell yourself that they are taking out THEIR time to acknowledge you and whether it's with a "Hello" or a "F*** you", they are giving that time to you. It's something to laugh about. And you'd have to forgive them because they were raised the wrong way and you weren't.

I feel sorry for these types of people and even though they will never go away, the closest place you can get is to ignore them.
